Beerware and New Products
A neat little project on beer fermentation control along with new gyros, upgraded LilyPad, a motor driver shield for Arduino, and some new development boards.
It's Friday, the building is close to being empty, and beer and thermodynamics are on my mind. Wanna know why?
This is a fun project involving a thermoelectric fermentation chiller for beer wort using SparkFun parts and BatchPCB. Thermodynamics, electronics, and beer, what a great combination. Awesome work Adam!
Ardumoto. Take a guess. This is a motor shield for an Arduino
USB or Arduino
Pro that will drive two
DC motors, 2 amps per channel.
The
ARMmite Pro is a ARM based board with a Arduino
Pro footprint. Packs a much bigger punch than the AVR Arduinos. 32 bits of processing power running at 60MHz turns this board into a low cost single board computer.
A new Olimex development board. The
AT90USB162 is the easiest way to add USB functionality to your next project. Atmel provides free open source HID (mouse, keyboard) and CDC (USB-to-RS232)
code.
This is one powerful motor control board. The
Dual Serial Motor Controller allows for variable speed and direction control of two large brushed DC motors using a simple serial interface. 13A continuous and 30A peak output per channel!
Here is a
cable we designed for the
ButtonPad Controller Board, but can be used with any4-pin JST connector.
The new ADXRS 6 series
gyros are now available. Comes in three flavors:
50,
150, and
300 degrees per second.
The
LilyPad Main Board now come with an ATMega328. It's like the ATmega168, but with double the flash space (32K), double the SRAM (2K), and double the EEPROM (1K).
